Meanwhile, the Deputy Chief Minister in charge of Urban Affairs, Sniawbhalang Dhar, confirmed that the Harijan Panchayat Committee will attend the meet the last week of September.

While speaking to the media, Dhar said, “The Harijan Panchayat Committee has requested an extension until the last week of September, and the meeting will now be held at the Chief Secretary level, likely toward the end of the month.”

Dhar further added that no additional meetings will take place at his level or the Deputy Chief Minister in charge of Home Affairs.

The relocation proposal has been a matter of ongoing discussions, and the upcoming meeting is expected to mark a pivotal moment in the negotiations between the government and the HPC.
